A Course in Ordinary Differential Equations and Applications

Texte du rabat

This book was written for advanced undergraduate math or science majors. Its initial purpose was to illustrate the elementary mathematical theory of ordinary differential equations and their diverse and powerful applications. Historically these have been decisive in many physical problems, some of which have philosophically challenged and indeed altered our civilization's concepts. Because of the importance of the subject, the book is also suitable for a one-semester course for graduate students. The book consists of 12 chapters and six appendices.
